Chapter 149: The Banquet
Duanmu Huai naturally would not be stupid enough to prepare for Kabal's stealing of light energy, although he left, but before leaving, Duanmu Huai planted a bomb on the traveler's shackles, if Kabal really wanted to seize the traveler's power, then Duanmu Huai had no choice but to ......... Blew it up.
Anyway, no matter what, these alien races can't be allowed to succeed.
It turns out that the best way to wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep is to beat him up.
The bomb shattered the shackles that bound the traveler and woke it from its slumber, but it was .........
"Well, it seems a little too powerful?"
Looking at the big white ball in front of him, Duanmu Huai shrugged his shoulders. The originally round and neat white ball, now there are holes all over the body, and you can even clearly see the parts inside——— what the hell is a traveler?
From the outside, it should be some kind of mechanical creation, so who made it?
It's not that Duanmu Huai didn't want to go to the traveler's interior to see the situation, but after thinking about it, he just woke up the people, and it is estimated that the traveler still has nowhere to vent at this time, although it may not know who blew it up......... Well, let's think it's the hapless pig-faced monster who bears the Traveler's wake-up gas.
Anyway, it has nothing to do with me.
The Traveler who was awakened by the explosion didn't react, and it didn't know if it couldn't speak or whatever, but it didn't mean to communicate with anyone else, but from its bombed tattered body, a large number of Spirits resurfaced, and thousands of Guardians were resurrected, in short......... Looking at it this way, the traveler should not be particularly angry.
Cabal's fleet was directly defeated, and with the death of the boss, the Cabal fleet also withdrew, and was beaten by Duanmu Huai, who didn't even know his own mother, and finally only two or three kittens barely escaped, and the others turned into fireworks in the air, and it was completely finished.
After that, the Holy City also began to rebuild, after all, although there were not many casualties, the Holy City itself was also bombarded by the Cabal fleet, and even if the city was finally saved, the reconstruction work was indispensable.
After this, Zavala also consulted with Duanmu Huai on behalf of the Tower Council.
The battle with Kabal can be regarded as making the Guardian civilization realize the necessity of the existence of the space fleet, but they really lack enough technology and experience, so Zavala also hopes that Duanmu Huai can help them in this regard.
In the end, the result of the negotiation between the two sides was that Duanmu Huai would help them build some warships (after all, as long as the battleship was redeployed as a space station base, the Void Dock could be activated again), and correspondingly, the materials and resources for building warships needed to be provided by the Guardian civilization.
This is actually not difficult in itself, after all, the Guardian civilization also built a large number of facilities and mining equipment within its own system during the Golden Age, although many of them were destroyed, but some remained. Now all you need to do is send those guardians to these planets to wipe out the aliens entrenched there, reactivate the mining equipment, and then collect and process the minerals and transport them to the space station for construction.
Of course, Duanmu Huai is not a day worker, and at least half of the resources collected are his remuneration.
After all, Duanmu Huai himself also needs to build battleships.
This is not something that can be done in a short period of time, restart the factory, and the keepers will complete the matter of collecting minerals, and Duanmu Locust will not do nothing during this time.
Merely...............
"Why am I here for such a boring banquet?"
Wearing armor and standing in the crowded banquet hall, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but complain to An.
"Aha, there's no way around it."
Hearing Duanmu Huai's complaint, An stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.
"Because this is the engagement ceremony of Duke Yuric's eldest son and the daughter of Count Hacha, Gurea and I, as princesses of Manalia and Regnes, must also attend, after all, this is a marriage contract promised by my father himself, so I must attend as a princess."
"But what does this have to do with me?"
"Mr. Knight, but I'm my fiancé with Gruya, huh? How can you not be present at such a time? And with Mr. Knight here, Quareya and I won't have those troublesome things anymore, and no one will disturb us, wouldn't it be nice? ”
"Good guy, that's what you really think, right?"
Duanmu Huai looked at the group of young men and girls not far away, judging from their dress, these young people should also be the children of the nobles of Manalia, at this moment they were gathering together to whisper, and from time to time they cast their eyes here. It is conceivable that if Duanmu Huai was not here, those guys would definitely come up to chat with An and Gu Leiya to build a good relationship, but now Duanmu Huai is standing here, not to mention anything else, just that momentum, people dare not approach, let alone say hello to An.
You're really using me as a tool.
"Ahahahaha........."
Sensing the dissatisfaction in Duanmu Huai's eyes, An Ye laughed dryly, and then grabbed Gu Leiya.
"Look, Gruya, there's something delicious over there!
”
Seeing Ann flee with Gracea, Duanmu Huai also sighed helplessly, turned to Ogis and said.
"You're not going around?"
"I just have to stay with my master."
Although she also changed into a luxurious black lace dress, Ogis was obviously not interested in such an occasion, and when she heard Duanmu Huai's inquiry, she only replied with a surge, and at the same time turned her gaze to the one in front of her again.
Hearing Ogis's answer, Duanmu Huai also shook his head, and at this time, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Ah, hello, Mr. Knight, long time no see."
Duanmu Huai turned his head to look, only to see a beautiful girl with elf-like ears and a gorgeous dress standing in front of him, greeting him with a smile, and Duanmu Huai also nodded.
"Hello, Miss Hannah, it's been a long time, how are you doing?"
The elf girl in front of her is none other than Hannah, the student president of the Manalia Academy of Magic, who is a very conscientious and hard-working person, huh......... In fact, as far as Duanmu Huai is concerned, most of the mess Ann caused in the academy was helped by Hannah to clean up the aftermath.
"Without a certain princess who does things every day, I feel a lot cleaner all of a sudden, but I also feel like a little too clean......... On the contrary, Mr. Knight is fine, right? Her Royal Highness didn't cause trouble for you, did you? ”
"She helped me a lot."
Duanmu Huai did not hide his thoughts about An at all.
"And I also think that she didn't mess with me, after all, the outside world is so exciting, it's too late for her to enjoy it, as far as I can see, she lives happily every day."
"yes, that's good..............."
Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, Hannah also breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time turned her head and looked helplessly at Ann, who was happily chatting with Grea on the side.
"I also understand that the Manalia Academy of Magic is too small for Her Highness the Princess, and she always has a view of the wider world in her eyes. Now that she is able to fulfill her wishes, it is also a good thing for me........."
With that, Hannah looked at Duanmu Huai again.
"But I hope you will protect Her Royal Highness the Princess, Mr. Knight, this is my only request."
"Don't worry, Miss Hannah, I won't put Ann in danger."
Duanmuhuai nodded, I have to say that An is indeed a quirky little girl, but her liveliness and cheerfulness do bring a lot of joy, to be honest, Duanmuhuai still likes her. He could also understand why Gruya would like Ann, eh......... It's just another thing to be an unmarried couple.
It's a shame to say, after all, Duanmu Huai didn't even experience a blind date before he crossed over, let alone get married. At this moment, Hannah looked ahead and spoke.
"Ah, it's almost the beginning."
As she spoke, Duanmu Huai looked forward, only to see a little white face in a white dress walking down the stairs in the middle, and not far below him, there was a beautiful girl in a black dress with black hair, according to Ann's introduction, she was the fiancée of the little white face, and next, it should be to announce the engagement and marriage of the two.
It was supposed to be like this...............
"Everyone!"
The little white face stood in the middle of the steps, looking around at the guests, and then he looked up and took a deep breath.
"I hereby declare that I ——— Jard. Euric is going to cancel with Audrey. Hasha's Marriage Contract! ”
The voice of the little white face echoed in the banquet hall, and for a while, there was a dead silence in the banquet hall, and all the guests raised their hands, originally intending to applaud, but at this time, they didn't know what expression to show.
Even An and Gu Leiya, who returned to Duanmu Huai's side, looked ahead with a confused face at this time, not knowing what to say. On the contrary, Duanmu Huai raised his eyebrows curiously and looked at the little white face.
"Oh?"
This is the real-life version of the divorce stream?
It's the first time he's seen it, and he thought it was the only one that would have this kind of bridge!
However, Duanmuhuai remembers that the divorce stream is generally that the man has lost his strength for some reason and has no use value, so he was divorced by the family, and it was the first time he saw the man tear up the marriage contract to the woman in public.
Why? Could it be that this little brother was cuckolded by his fiancée?
At this time, Duanmu Huai also immediately entered the melon eating mode, but unfortunately there were no melon seeds next to him, otherwise he would have moved a bench and sat down to eat melon seeds and watch the play.
And the Miss Audrey obviously didn't expect this to happen, she also turned pale, looked at the other party, and asked.
“…………… Lord Jarde, why did you cancel your engagement? ”
In response to Adair's inquiry, the young man named Yald was silent for a moment, and then held out his hand.
"Because, I have someone I really love, and she is my good match!
”
As he spoke, Yalde walked up to the guests, stretched out his hand, and pulled a girl with short fluffy orange hair out of it and carried her into his arms. Then he stared at Audrey and spoke.
"Only this Miss Angela is my true love! I will marry her!" ”
“…………………???”
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai looked confused, he turned his head and looked at An, who was also dumbfounded.
"Is your country so justifiable to even cheat?"
